STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – The University of Pennsylvania track & field programs jumped back into the indoor season on Saturday night at the Penn 10-Team Select, hosted at the Ocean Breeze Complex, highlighted by a program-record time by freshman Moforehan Abinusawa in just her second collegiate meet.
 
The night had nine different program top-10 marks between the men and women, and Abinusawa made the biggest splash in the 60m. After placing herself in the top three in her first collegiate meet in December, she took it a step further on Saturday. She took first in the event with a time of 7.34, topping Taylor McCorkle's 2017 record time of 7.42.
 
Freshman Christiana Nwachuku, who already sits seventh in program history in the 60m, took third in the race with a time of 7.65.
 
Abinusawa wasn't done making her mark for the night, also taking first place in the 200m where she clocked a time of 24.06, the third best time in program history. She was followed in by Isabella Whittaker for fourth on a time of 24.65, landing her ninth in program history. Caia Gelli, who already sits sixth in program history in the event, finished fifth with a time of 24.96.
 
Whittaker earned herself a top finish in the 400m, crossing the line at 55.31 to place her fifth in program history. She was joined in the top five in the event by Jocelyn Niemiec (56.27) and Aliya Garozzo (57.19), taking second and fourth, respectively.
 
Also in the women's sprints, Katherine Muccio and Garozzo took top finishes in the 60m hurdles. Muccio took third in the finals with a time of 8.66, while Garozzo earned fourth with a time of 8.76.
 
In the mile, Bronwyn Patterson took second place with a time of 4:47.17, narrowly missing her personal record that currently ranks third in program history. Maeve Stiles took fourth in the race, setting a new PR that holds her at seventh in history with a 4:48.13. Lizzy Bader cracked the top five with a time of 4:49.22, landing her ninth in program history.
 
The women had several other top five finishes. On the track, Arielle Breuninger took third with a time of 2:21.59 in the 800m. In the 4x400, the grouping of Laura Gugliotta, Whittaker, Niemiec, and Lily Orr took first with a time of 3:49.63. On the infield, Sarah Lavery earned third in the high jumper with a clearance of 1.62m (5-3.75). At the pole vault, Nataliaa Ilieva, Meghan Hart and Kai Eisenhardt each took third place with a height of 3.47m (11-4.5). In the weight throw, Kira Lindner earned fourth with a distance of 14.93m (49-0).
 
On the men's side, three different Quakers made top 10 marks headed by Shane Gardner in the 60m hurdles. In his first collegiate meet in December, he placed himself fifth in program history. On Saturday night, he moved that mark to the second spot after taking first place with a time of 7.91. He was joined by teammate Jake Rose in third with a time of 8.23 in the final. However, he registered a preliminary time of 8.19 earlier in the night, a time good enough for ninth in program history.
 
The other program mark was set in the pole vault by James Rhoads. Earning first place with a clearance of 5.20m (17-0.75), he moves into fifth in program history. Benedikt Sachta took second in the event, clearing 4.80m (15-9).
 
Another top finish took place on the infield at the high jump where Kampton Kam set a new personal record and reset the Singapore national record with a clearance of 2.06m (6-9). Three other Quakers joined him in the top five for the event, as Mark Anselmi took second (2.06m), Conrad Moore earned third (2.01m), and Jack Meigel finished fifth (1.96m).
 
Back on the track, Denis Gallagher took second in the 800m with a time of 1:52.88 and Kyle Miller followed in at fifth with a time of 1:53.47. In the 3,000m, Zubeir Dagane clocked a top five finish with a time of 8:13.57. The 4x400m wrapped up the track events, as Penn took third with a time of 3:21.11 thanks to the grouping of Alec Jackson, Antaures Jackson, Miller, and Liam O'Hara.
 
The Quakers are back in action next weekend, traveling to the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland for the Wesley A. Brown Invitational. The two-day event starts up on Friday.
